Ms Nóirín O'Sullivan:

Deputy, I think the evidence speaks for itself. What we can demonstrate very clearly is that from 27 July 2015, to date, there were immediate actions taken. If I may give the timeline on that, on 27 July these matters were raised. On 30 July they were actioned. The first meeting of the steering group took place on 6 August and thereafter a series of actions were implemented, which resulted in the 19 recommendations of Mr. Kelly's internal audit report that will be implemented by the end of this year. What is really important to emphasise about that is that this is some thing that has been going on and an architecture and an infrastructure that is very complex and complicated has developed over nearly 40 years. What we have managed to do in that short space of time is to unravel that, to deal with it, where necessary, to deconstruct all that had been done and to put in place mechanisms to ensure that it can never happen again.
